=head1 DESCRIPTION
This action will serialize the body of an HTTP Response. The serializer is
-selected by introspecting the requests content-type header.
+selected by introspecting the HTTP Requests content-type header.
+
+It requires that your Catalyst controller is properly configured to set up the
+mapping between Content Type's and Serialization classes.
+
+The specifics of serializing each content-type is implemented as a plugin to
+L<Catalyst::Action::Serialize>.
-It requires that your Catalyst controller have a "serialize" entry
-in it's configuration.
+Typically, you would use this ActionClass on your C<end> method. However,
+nothing is stopping you from choosing specific methods to Serialize:
-The specifics of serializing each content-type is implemented as
-a plugin to L<Catalyst::Action::Serialize>.
+ sub foo :Local :ActionClass('Serialize') {
+ .. populate stash with data ..
+ }
+
+When you use this module, the request class will be changed to
+L<Catalyst::Request::REST>.
=head1 CONFIGURATION
-=over 4
+=head2 map
+
+Takes a hashref, mapping Content-Types to a given serializer plugin.
-=item default
+=head2 default
-The default Serialization format. See the next section for
-available options. This is used if a requested content-type
-is not recognized.
+This is the 'fall-back' Content-Type if none of the requested or acceptable
+types is found in the L</map>. It must be an entry in the L</map>.
-=item stash_key
+=head2 stash_key
-Where in the stash the data you want serialized lives.
+Specifies the key of the stash entry holding the data that is to be serialized.
+So if the value is "rest", we will serialize the data under:
-=item map
+ $c->stash->{'rest'}
-Takes a hashref, mapping Content-Types to a given plugin.
+=head2 content_type_stash_key
-=back
+Specifies the key of the stash entry that optionally holds an overriding
+Content-Type. If set, and if the specified stash entry has a valid value,
+then it takes priority over the requested content types.
+
+This can be useful if you want to dynamically force a particular content type,
+perhaps for debugging.
+
+=head1 HELPFUL PEOPLE
+
+Daisuke Maki pointed out that early versions of this Action did not play
+well with others, or generally behave in a way that was very consistent
+with the rest of Catalyst.
=head1 SEE ALSO
You likely want to look at L<Catalyst::Controller::REST>, which implements
-a sensible set of defaults for a controller doing REST.
